Since adopting Dynamic Search Ads, leading German retailer of motorcycle equipment FC-Moto have expanded their reach from five to 25 countries across the globe.

Growing their business internationally had become a key focus for FC-Moto since their expansion online in 1999.

However, to achieve this international reach at scale, the company needed a way to market their products cost-efficiently in countries where they didn’t speak the language.

“We don’t have a dedicated marketing team or agency,” explains FC-Moto CEO Farshid Chalatbari. “So we were looking for a smart solution that would help us expand our online marketing endeavours at scale while making as much use of automation as possible.”

Once FC-Moto had identified the markets they wanted to expand into, Dynamic Search Ads provided the solution to achieving this. “First of all we identified the most suitable export markets, depending on parameters like population, social progress, currency risk, motorcycle popularity, and distance, in order to account for delivery costs,” Farshid says. “As we didn’t have any internal language support for these countries, Dynamic Search Ads were the perfect solution for us. Our account management team helped us set up Dynamic Search Ads for an additional 20 countries. By making use of automated bidding, Conversion Optimizer, dynamic ad formats, and auto targeting, we were able to drive our export business at scale.”

The retailer spends about 15% of its marketing budget on Dynamic Search Ads, and has seen monthly conversions grow by up to 20% as a result.

Farshid describes the tools as low maintenance and says that the market insights they provide are of particular benefit. “Dynamic Search Ads really helped us to gain a foothold in markets we didn’t advertise in before,” he affirms. “Our export journey has just started and we’re excited to further grow together with Google.”
